The following is a list of Top 10 Tiders for Week 8 of the 2006 football season. Every Wednesday, BOL senior writer Travis Reier lists his top 10 Tide performers. In effect, the list serves as a week-to-week ranking of Alabama's most valuable players.

Despite playing with a nagging shoulder injury, Hall is on a historic four-week run. In racking up 119 receiving yards against Ole Miss, Hall set new school marks for career 100-yard receiving games (seven), consecutive 100-yard games (four) and is now tied with Ozzie Newsome for 100-yard games in a season (four).

Caldwell has played 456 of a possible 477 snaps (95.5 percent) on offense this season and has graded out at 90 percent or better in all seven games. Continues to slide over to left guard when the Tide goes with its two-minute offense.

Darby is the only Division I-A player with 100 or more rushing attempts without a touchdown this season. Ran for 141 yards in the second half against the Rebels.
